At Albany Technical College, this Georgia AIM Week stop highlighted blockchain data applications and innovation in hydroponics and aquaponics, shaping the future of agri-business. Through Georgia AIM’s Rural Supply Chain Initiative, a Georgia Tech undergrad, Arpita Gupte, came to work at Sunnyland for three-months, as a Georgia AIM funded intern. During that time she organized all of the company’s shipping data using ChatGPT. Georgia Tech has also found that building such a broad array of partnerships, as well as visibility for the college has helped to secure even more corporate support. By sharing its wealth of AI knowledge, partners and initiatives, Georgia Tech is planting seeds, which should grow rapidly in Georgia’s fertile farm soil, or perhaps via hydroponics.
